I'm really blessed to be liked by the audiences.

I used to watch a lot of Malayalam films in the past.

I would love to do a Malayalam film if the right script and character comes along.

I really want to do a Telugu movie.

It's always been great shooting in Kerala.

My fans are indulging in social welfare activities from time to time and have also been helping economically backward students.

Suriya is more handsome than me.

My fans are the most important people in my career, and I've always wanted to do something in return for them.

I have drawn a clear line between my personal and professional life.

I will try to be a good husband.

My parents have ensured that we never develop starry airs.

I started off as an assistant director in Mani Ratnam's 'Ayudha Ezhuthu' and 'Yuva.'

I've played heavy characters in my first two films.

Who would want to do a bad film? It's just that not all films work in my favour, and I'm fine with it.

I like doing comedy.

I would say 'Siruthai' is a masala film with all the masalas in the right proportion.

In Tamil Nadu, watching a film on a festival is a part of our culture. People prefer going to a theatre rather than bursting crackers at home.

'Paruthiveeran' was a difficult film to work on. It was my first film but a very strong character.

An actor has to do everything, all genres of films.

I must admit, strong films are more interesting to me, as, by the end of the day's shooting, you feel good.

When 'Siruthai' became a hit, there was suddenly a lot at stake. A lot of people were telling me what to do and what not to. But at some point, you realise that's not the way to go. Good or bad, you need to be making your own choices.

Nobody can write stories like Malayalam writers.

We should teach our children about the reality of failure. Instead of buying them iPhones and iPads, we should teach them values and reality.

Regardless of what film you make, you want people to watch your film, and you ultimately need commercial success.
